Mezzanine CPU Side Card, M.2 NVMe SSD, Front I/O
|
Available as a mezzanine add-on expansion board (aka side card) e.g. for the SC5-FESTIVAL CompactPCI® Serial CPU, the SCZ-NVM is equipped with two M.2 NVMe type SSD module sockets, as a rugged mass storage solution. In addition, frequently required I/O functions (RS-232, USB 3.0, DisplayPort) are provided via front panel connectors.
Both M.2 sockets are suitable for PCIe based modules (M-key) up to the 22110 format. The upper connector establishes a PCIe Gen3 link x4 and should be used with the the main NVMe SSD. The lower connector M.2 socket supports a PCIe Gen3 link x2, either for NVMe SSD backup storage, or special purpose modules such as the Intel® Optane™ SSD or the EKF M01-NVSRAM.
Features
- Mixed function mezzanine side card for EKF CompactPCI® Serial CPU boards
- Based on new mezzanine connectors HSE1/HSE2 (8 x PCIe, DP, USB3)
- Suitable e.g. for use with CPU cards SC4-CONCERTO, SC5-FESTIVAL
- Provides additional front panel I/O, and dual M.2 NVMe SSD
- 8HP assembly together with CPU card
- 12HP assembly in total with CPU card and C32-FIO mezzanine
Front Panel I/O
- Variety of front panel I/O options:
- USB 3.1 Gen1 xHCI SuperSpeed F/P Type-A connector
- DisplayPort F/P connector (standard type, latched), 3rd graphics output
- 2 x RS-232 male D-Sub 9-pin (COM port) F/P connectors
- Option C32-FIO legacy front panel I/O (2 x RS-232, 1 x USB2 Type-A)
- Integrated 8HP front panel for CPU card and SCZ-NVM (12HP when C32-FIO third floor mezzanine is installed in addition)
On-Board Mass Storage Options
